Week of Feb. 24th
The Six Flags Reading Program allows students who log 6 hours of
recreational reading to receive a free Six Flags ticket that is good for summer
admission to Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington. The reading logs are due
back to homeroom teachers on Thursday, February 27, 2014. To learn more

Our field trip this
week! We’ll be going to the Will Rogers Auditorium for “Aesop’s Fables.” It’s Tuesday the 25th. Kids will need to bring lunch (with a drink)
to school, as we’ll be eating an early lunch in the classroom
before we leave.
